LITTLE STAY-AT-HOME AND THE WISHING-PIN
If Little Stay-At-Home had not found a red, white and blue pin on the 4th of July perhaps nothing fairylike would have happened.
She said to herself over and over,
“The Fourth of July, the Fourth of July
To be contented at home I’ll try.”
The children going to the Fourth of July celebration waved their hands to her and called, “Goodbye, Little Stay-At-Home, good-bye.”
Little Stay-At-Home knew that mother needed her at home, and she knew that the ironing had to be done.
As she got out the Clothes Horse she heard a voice call.
